Solanum IRCd

identify-msg

Description

The solanum.chat/identify-msg capability causes the server to add a message tag to messages sent by a user who is currently identified to the services account that corresponds to the user's current nickname.

The tag MUST be named solanum.chat/identified and specifies no value.

The tag MUST be added by the ircd to all commands sent by a user (e.g. PRIVMSG, MODE, NOTICE, and all others) and numeric replies sent on behalf of the user.

Example

Consider that I am identified to the glguy services account and I have also grouped the glguy_ nickname to that account. These are the expected results from chatting with friend as glguy, glguy_, and notme.

@solanum.chat/identified :glguy PRIVMSG friend :hi, friend.
@solanum.chat/identified :glguy_ PRIVMSG friend :I'm using my alt.
:notme PRIVMSG friend :This isn't my nickname.

Relationship to other extensions

This extension works in tandem with account-tag. While account-tag always specifies the user's canonical services account name, identify-msg provides information about the user's current nickname.
